So I took the time to test the chest run, it is indeed extremely high XP/hour but it requires a group to be able to do it efficiently.
For solo XP farming, COTA runs are better but I don't think a full group chest run's speed can be beat since it takes the randomness of chest RNG really out of the equation.
The group farming for chest runs mainly require a zDPS pull monk, the rest of the classes don't really matter.

In theory 4Bish XP per hour solo is achievable with good RNG and no mistakes.

I tried my first full one hour run with this setup and got
2.501.537.583 XP in one hour.
full video of the run will be on Youtube later tonight.
It was really sloppy run, lots of lag and shoulders bugged out once. I'm sure my next attempt will be a much higher value

Hi Guys,
Managed to come up with a build/run for farming xp at really amazing speeds last night with the release of 2.0
Here's the vid

Here's the 9 hour stream last night where I tested various builds, areas, dw vs 2h, and group coordinated runs. (avail to twitch subs)

I think with a really geared and coordinated group, 1b+ xp per hour is possibly in reach.
Cheers,
